Teacher’s notes and lesson plan
The aim of the lesson is to teach the terms “This is” and “my”. Like Plato says, when teaching anything to kids, make learning as close to play as possible. Make everything a game, a race, any kind of competition and things will go well with kids of this age (6 and 7 years old).
